      Lack of camera improvement is my biggest disappointment about the S8. As a matter of fact, I much prefer the warmer colors of the S7 camera.

Moreover, if dxomark ever rates any camera higher or at the same spot as a Samsung flagship, they go out of their way to prove otherwise. They're probably not paid to do so, they just love Samsung phones. Which kinda makes this a Samsung forum cuz it's all they ever talk about.

                    Jay Kay, 04 Jun 2017Well that's fair enough because s7 and edge were a bit ahea... moreThat's not the only thing they didn't ... "Reinvent".

                    They also kept the same amount of ram, the same CPU (basically), only thing better is the GPU (and even there not by much).

                    They made the fingertip far worse (by putting it into a useless place), less battery too.

                    Basically it's a taller S7 give or take.

                    Now why would people be happy with that I don't know. It's the smallest change I've ever seen between any S series.

                                  People with a S7/S7 edge will be pretty happy, but to be fair to S8 owners, it's pretty hard to improve on an already superb camera. The S7's had Dual-Pixel f/1.7 camera's in early 2016, while many other smartphones are only beginning to get these features now.

                                        White Balance has been a bit improved.
                                        S7 on auto is kinda yellowish, warm colors.
                                        Green of plants and gray of concret get yellowish.
